Parnes Surname Meaning

User-submitted Reference

Parness (פרנס) was an honorary title given to the president of a large Jewish community.

The next three generations of his family included a Parness of the Polish Jewish community. Many of their male offspring took Parness as their family name, out of respect for their forbear's high honour.
